Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a positive resist composition suitably used in the ultramicrolithography process of producing, for example, VLSI or high-capacity microchip or in other photofabrication processes. More specifically, the present invention relates to a positive photoresist capable of forming a highly refined pattern with use of electron beam, X-ray, EUV light or the like, that is, a positive resist composition suitably usable for fine processing of a semiconductor device, where electron beam, X-ray or EUV light (wavelength: around 13 nm) is used.
  • the electron beam lithography is positioned as a pattern forming technique of the next generation or second next generation and a high-sensitivity and high-resolution positive resist is being demanded.
  • the positive resist for use with electron beam when higher elevation is sought for, not only reduction of resolution but also worsening of line edge roughness are brought about and development of a resist satisfying these properties at the same time is strongly demanded.
  • the line edge roughness as used herein means that the edge of resist at the interface between the pattern and the substrate irregularly fluctuates in the direction perpendicular to the line direction due to the resist property and when the pattern is viewed from right above, the edge gives an uneven appearance.
  • the light is at a wavelength belonging to an extreme ultraviolet region and has a high energy and therefore, in corporation with a photochemical reaction such as negative conversion ascribable to EUV light, there arises a problem such as reduction of contrast. Accordingly, also in the lithography using X-ray or EUV light, an important problem to be solved is to satisfy high sensitivity as well as high resolution and the like at the same time. These problems are in need of solution.
  • a chemical amplification-type resist utilizing an acid catalytic reaction is mainly used from the standpoint of elevating the sensitivity and in the case of a positive resist, a chemical amplification-type resist composition mainly comprising an acid generator and a phenolic polymer which is insoluble or sparingly soluble in an alkali developer but becomes soluble in an alkali developer under the action of an acid (hereinafter simply referred to as a "phenolic acid-decomposable resin”) is being effectively used.

  • An object of the present invention is to solve the technical problems for enhancing performances in the fine processing of a semiconductor device, where high-energy ray, X-ray, electron beam or EUV light is used, and provide a positive resist composition satisfying high sensitivity, high resolution and good line edge roughness at the same time.
